There are two kinds of reactions to trying out an air fryer:
"Wow, this is so much better than a normal oven" and
"Wow, this is so much worse than a normal fryer"
I am very much of the latter opinion
Mine is
“Wow, this can prepare so many different things in an easy and lazy way, i dont care if its not as tasty, beats not having food because i was to tired”
Deep fat fryers are fairly easy to use though. Also quite quick. They don't need cleaning with every use (maybe every 5 or 6 uses). What they aren't good for is having a clean kitchen. Creates steam, oil splatter, and they smell when in use. Can be a complete bitch to clean too, especially depending on the design. Even the easy to clean ones eat soap as the waste and dirt is oil saturated.
If your gonna list the pros of a deep fryer, list the main con- smells like grease all the time
There would probably also be some health complications if you deep fry half as much food as I air fry/toaster oven.
My god, I'd be huger than I am now
I said they smell when in use. If you're not using it it has a lid on, so you don't really smell it. Unless you just don't put the lid on...
I meant they smell when not in use, lid or not 🤷♂️
You either have a very sensitive nose or your doing something wrong.
Definitely #1, but I also wouldn't completely rule out #2 🤔
